Nolan North appearing in a video game is not exactly news. Itâs more newsworthy when he doesnât. But voicing The Penguin, with a canon-defying cockney accent even, is treading the limits of overexposure even for him. One reason North can get away with this is because, in addition to having great vocal range, we never see his face. Well, thatâs where you guys come in this week.

I will allow exceptions: If you want to swap places, putting one of his characters in his place for a publicity shot at the VGAs, Comic-Con, wherever. Thereâs also another, ahem, actor with a last name of North who would be pretty hilarious in a video game but if you go that route, keep it clean or face moderation.
Hereâs some info to help you out:

You know the rules: The 20 best will get rounded up and published at the end of next Saturday. Meantime, I and the rest of the starred commentariat will approve and promote as many as we can so folks can see them and pass judgment.
Moses now has a couple of engraved tablets heâd like to read:
1. Create your âShop.
2. Upload it to a free image hosting service. I suggest imgur. Itâs stupid simple. No account is necessary.
3. This is very important: You must use the URL of the image itself. In imgur, this is the second URL it gives you after you upload the image. Itâs under âDirect Link (email & IM)â
4. At the beginning of the comments roll, click âStart a New Threadâ
5. To the right of your name, select âImage.â
6. Paste the imgur URL in the image URL field. Itâs the field that says âImage URL.â
7. You can add editorial commentary if you want, but then just hit submit and your image will load. If it doesnât, paste the image URL as a comment.
8. This is important: Keep your image size under 1 MB. It will not upload to comments if it is over that size. Whatâs more, weâre getting reports that if your âShop is more than 1000px tall (vertical), it wonât upload. If youâre getting the broken-image icon, try resizing to a smaller dimension.
As an added inducement, I want to let you know I do star commenters who send in worthy/funny submissions â whether or not theyâre chosen for the final 20. This may not happen immediately. I usually start rounding up a gallery by the middle of the week. This is my subjective call, but I do want to recognize as many contributors as possible, and show gratitude for making this such a popular feature on weekends.
Now, Gentlemen, start your âshopping!
